Follow-up Comment #10, bug #55107 (project groff):
Personally, I don't see a justification for implementing psbb as a preprocessor. I am willing to pursue an extended lex/yacc implementation, (subject to Deri actually answering the question I've now asked twice, without a response: should CropBoxes, or any of PDF's other bounding box attributes, have precedence over the MediaBox attributes?), but if you insist on pursuing a solution in Perl ... a disgusting language, IMO ... then I'm out. If you read the email referenced by Branden in comment #4 You will see that I have answered your question, I apologise if you had difficulty understanding my answer regarding CropBox, I'm happy to try and explain it again, if needed. My proposal (D) was never intended to be a .pdfbb replacement (nor .psbb), remember this ticket concerns problems with .PDFPIC so a pre-processor would simply add extra lines to the source to achieve what .PDFPIC currently does, in the same idiom that pic and tbl do now. If accusing someone on a public forum of holding you up by not answering your question (when they have helpfully done so), is considered disgusting language, perhaps we can be a bit less perl! :-) _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55107> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
